“Awesome host. She took good care of my fur baby and constantly sent us pictures of her. She was very accommodating with our requests. Would definitely employ her services again”
“If we could give William 10 stars we would. Our Frenchie Rosie is a handful. She's a VELCRO dog that loves attention and needs to be by your side 24/7. She even got to sleep on "Uncle Bills" bed. He has a lot a patience. His dog Whiskey is extremely friendly, as well as the other dog in his care. There's a lot of room inside and out. Rosie came home happy, healthy and exhausted from her first 3 day vacation. We looking forward to seeing him again.”
“Lorrie was wonderful with Lola, she treated her like her own dog. It was the first time Lola spent time at someone else’s house without me and she had a great time with Lorrie and the other dogs there. She sent me pictures and videos often. I already booked her for my next trip because Lola had so much fun and I didn’t worry as I knew she was being taken good care of.”
“This was the first time since my boys were born in 2018 that they were dogsat by anyone else other than family and it was perfect. Bonnie and her family were fantastic. They kept my boys comfortable while I was away for a week and kept in constant touch to give updates and adorable photos so I could see how they were doing throughout the day. 100% would rebook in the future. Thanks Bonnie and Yee!”
“I would 100% recommend booking Dhruvit as a sitter. One of our dogs has special needs including three different types of medication and a a special harness. The other is just very high energy and we were able to rest easy knowing our fur babies were in the hands of true animal lovers. Our dog Morty has back issues which made us hesitant to leave him with a sitter, but when we picked him up he was in better shape then when we left… 10/10 !!!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care Xiaoke provided for my energetic puppy Hazel. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly had a genuine love for dogs. I received regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. I can tell Hazel was happy and relaxed when I returned. I will definitely be using their services again!”
“Bob is the absolute best. We are immeasurably thankful for the care and attention he provided to our dog. Full/complete communication before and during our dog’s stay with his family, pics of our canine each day. My dog looked/acted so happy when I picked her up, I think she thought she was treated to a spa vacation. Thank you Bob for everything you did for our little lady.”
“Bhavani handles puppies like a pet owner with care and affection. Bhavani took great care of Benny. She regularly sent pics and videos, which was very reassuring. She spent time playing with him and made sure he was well cared for throughout. I especially appreciated how she helped Benny socialize—he was happy and comfortable. Would definitely recommend her as a dogsitter.”
“Jamie , had been amazing with our dog-Honey. She sends regular updates , is very communicative and offers her care and warmth. We have been using her services since last year, and Honey enjoys his stay and is comfortable here. We highly recommend Jamie for dog sitting services.”

“What a relief to find Vincent who was able to board our German Shepherd mix while we went away for almost a week. He sent us updates and we were happy our pet wasn’t alone. He was safe and got along with their beautiful lab mix-Scarlett. Thank you Vincent!”
“Margarita was great with Blossom. Blossom is a bit timid but Margarita made her feel so comfortable. Margarita sent plenty of updates, photos and videos, which kept our mind at ease. Will definitely be using Margarita again!”

“I was very happy with the care that Kimberly provided for my three cats. She was thorough with the daily report and supplied me with pictures every day which were great!

“William is an excellent Dog Sitter. His hours are very flexible, if I get stuck at work a little late. My dog loves him. As soon as we pull up to the house, he starts wagging his tail all excited to go visit his new friends.”
“Jonathan was excellent. He introduced my dog to his own dogs so that they can get comformtable around each other since my dog is afraid of big dogs. Jonathan kept updating me throughout the day with pictures and text messages. I was very happy with the service and care my pet got from Jonathan and will definitely go back to them in futuure.”
“Myah had a great time at Jamie's playing with Ollie! This was her first time and she was excited to be going when we pulled in the driveway. She came home very happy and tired!”
“Jinjie was an incredible sitter for our puppy Clover! Our pup can be a bit nervous at first so she ensured we had a meet up prior to the stay and did a great job at making Clover feel comfortable! Our puppy also loved her cat and dog! Would highly highly recommend Jinjie (:”
“We needed a sitter last-minute, & were lucky to find Dhruvit. He’s a very nice guy with an entire house & yard that our dog got to enjoy. When we arrived, the sitters’ mother was also there, & both of them were so sweet with Diego! We immediately felt comfortable leaving him in their care. When we picked up Diego, he looked like he had a great day (with some sitters, we can tell he feels anxious to leave, but he was completely comfortable with them). The sitter gave snacks per instructions & provided pics throughout the stay, plus took the time to provide a quick summary at pick up. Strongly recommended!”
“Barbara is great! I have an 8 week old Labrador retriever, full of puppy energy and I was very carefully vetting someone I felt could handle him with authentic love and care but who also understands dogs in all stages of their lives. After reading about Barbara and her experience and love for animals my gut told me she was the right choice. I was right! She was accommodating, punctual, friendly, kept me updated throughout the day & took pictures which made me feel at ease knowing he was thriving in her care. She has a beautiful yard which is a huge plus cause I know my boy got some good fun & exercise. Will definitely rebook :)!”
“Evgenii was great in taking care of our puppy. This was her first time with a sitter and he made it easy for both of us by sharing constant pictures and updates. Highly recommend and Will definitely work with him again. - R”
“Alice is great with my special needs senior dog Porter. He is happy every time he sees her, and she is very responsible with catering to his special needs, allergies and medical conditions. She is very communicative and lets me know any changes observed in Porter during his stay, plus sends cute pictures regularly. I trust her with my deaf/blind senior completely.”
About: Dog hair is my daily uniform, but experience is my strength. From playful pups to seniors and special needs companions, I provide compassionate, reliable care tailored to every dog. I work from home Monday through Friday, so your pup will get lots of attention and care. I’m available most weekends and will never be out of the house longer than it takes to run some brief errands. I have a fenced yard and provide full supervision. Dogs can be separated or crated if requested, ensuring a safe, calm environment tailored to each dog’s needs.
“Kevin is the best! My anxious cavapoo Cleo, absolutely loves staying with him! She is always so happy and relaxed with him! Kevin is incredibly kind, easygoing, and flexible, which makes coordinating everything so stress-free. His communication is always clear and consistent, and I never have to worry when Cleo is with him. The biggest thing for me is how comfortable and happy Cleo feels in his care! Highly, highly recommend Kevin!”
“Courtney and Sherwood are so nice and took good care of Dodger! We had a previous meet/greet with their dog and all went well, so we booked for the next day. They sent us pictures and texts throughout the day and I could tell Dodger was doing well there. We feel good knowing he’s cared for in a clean and happy household!”
“Susie is such a fun and a nice person overall. She took care of Kobe after I reached out to her last minute. Very understanding, punctually and sent pics/updates. Would definitely recommend.”

About: ⚠If you're new to Rover use my Promo code "XAVIEM67281" to get a 💲20 discount off the first service you use with me. ⚠ I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. Not a day goes by that I'm not taking care of the family pets or someone else's. I have walked, checked on, and baby sat dogs of all different shapes and sizes. I use to take care of my neighbors dogs, when she wasn't available. Took dogs to the vet when they had no one else to do it. And I have been a dog walker for about 5 years now. I have walked small dogs such as miniature poodles to bigger dogs such as pitbulls. Your furry friend will be in good hands. I'm currently working part time on Mondays through Fridays, but I have a flexible schedule. I'll feed and take the dog out in the mornings, and after work. During the weekend they'll have my fully undevivded attention through out the whole day I have a fenced in yard with several friendly dogs who will happily play with visitors. I also have some cats but they keep to themselves, lounging around in a separate room from the dogs. Your pets will mostly be under my watchful eye, for I will be home, most of the day watching them.

About: I have had a love for all kinds of animals ever since I was a little kid. I’ve had every sort of pet, big and small, from fish to ferrets to dogs. While I have no professional experience looking after pets, I have always prided myself on my responsible and caring nature. I will make sure that your pet is comfortable, safe, and has fun! I have had dogs of my own for the past five years. Freddy is a 5 year old Italian Greyhound and Sammy is a 2 year old medium mixed breed. If you want your dog, big or small, to socialize both of my fur babies are excellent with other animals. If not, a one-on-one walk is totally doable! I have personal experience with cats, elderly dogs, puppies, gentle giants, and itty bitties. I’m also comfortable administering medication as my own dog has a seizure disorder that requires multiple medications several times a day. I’m currently studying for my board exams and need any excuse I can get to enjoy the summer weather. I would love to take your dog along with me on my walks and runs during study breaks. I would love to take your dog on a walk or run around your neighborhood or park. If your dog wants some socialization I can even bring one or both of my pups along for a play-date. If I’m with your dog I will treat them as if they were my own. When I take my dogs out for a walk I am always diligent about traffic and others in our area. I pay attention to my dog’s body language and will adjust our route according to their comfort. I always check the pavement to make sure it is not too hot and always have water, treats, poop bags, and paw balm with me!

About: I provide more than just pet care—I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies who need extra playtime and training, as well as senior pets who benefit from gentle handling, medication management, and a slower pace. I pay close attention to detail, communicate frequently with pet parents, and treat every dog as if they were my own. I work full time, but I work from home. I am available on most days and can be there for lunch routines. I am available during my lunch breaks for dog walks. I have one mini bernedoodle, who is the most friendly dog in the world. I can take care of dogs in my house, and am available for walks on my lunch.
“Mike was an absolute gem with our puppy Summer. She can be hesitant and nervous with new people, but she warmed up fast. Mike is the first person we had pick her up and walk her without us being there. I couldn't have asked for anyone better. He kept me updated and took some great pictures of her. Thank you thank you thank you for taking care of our precious little diva.”
“I was very hesitant to use rover. I did not like the idea of random people just coming into my home. Then we found Nicholas and I am so happy we used rover. He has helped me out so many times and my 3 year old golden doodle loves him. I highly recommend using Nicholas if you’re looking for an amazing person to care for your dog.”

I have summer off so one of us will always be home caring for your fur babies and taking them on 2 walks a day and letting them play in the yard for free play:) I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog to keep your fur babies company and to play with:) if needed I can crate your dog for safety purposes but if not they are roaming free if they were at home
About: I've had small to medium sized dogs but that does not limit me to any other sizes. I enjoy having dogs as company and playing with them till we’re both tired. I work from home and will go to the office at least once a month if needed. My work schedule is 9AM-5PM but I would be able to take your dog outside throughout the day. I live in a friendly and quiet neighborhood and parks are also available near me. I have the flexibility to drive any distance between 5-15 miles away from my home. Please require any special instructions that you would like followed for your dog and any health concerns they may have. Can't wait you meet you and your furry friend! Thank you for your consideration.
“Tessa I appreciate you so much & so does monkey. I hope this is a start of a new and ongoing relationship. I definitely recommend you and want to book you for the future. We have found our perfect person. Thank you Tessa, see you soon dear.”
About: I’ve grown up with my grandmas dog who was a very shy and quiet dog and would usually just walk away from everyone but my grandma and me. Everyone thought he wasn’t a “good” dog because he didn’t really like anyone’s presence, yet they didn’t know how excited he’d get to see me. Sometimes he’d get so excited he’d pee a little! Every year after receiving birthday money I’d make sure to get him a little treat as a kid. Our time was great, and I’ll make sure it’s just as great with your pup! My schedule is lenient and can be adjusted with preparation. Monday-Wednesday 3-7 pm and saturdays from morning to evening is when I’ll most likely always be free! As someone who’s a very big advocator in pets safety and care, I’ll make sure to accept any sort of accommodations for your pet, every pet deserves a best friend no matter their needs!
“Was the first time we used rover and didnt wanna leave our baby girl alone while we ate dinner so we decided to book with him. He was able to get our pup walked with a quick booking process and had great communication the whole time.”
“Felix did a great job taking care of my dog for the weekend. He sent photos during walks to keep me updated and was always on time for the walks. He was very polite and communicative to make time time to meet beforehand.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. Lots of experience in caring for dog and dog walking. I also have experience in caring for a pet after surgery and administering medication. I understand how important it is for your dog to be comfortable while you are away from home. I work full-time, but I work from home two days a week. Those days I would be available for dog walking or checking in on your pet. Could do in-home sitting, preferably on weekends, but should be able to fit weekdays schedule also. I would be caring for your pet in your home. This would make them the most comfortable being in their own house. I will try to stick to the same routines that the owner does.
“Kim is the best dog walker I could have ever asked for! She cares for my dog and treats my dog like her own! Whenever my dog was sick, she would message me and see how my dog was feeling and if there is anything she can do to help! She is always extremely kind and flexible to my schedule! I would recommend her 1000 times over to anyone because I know your pet would be in great hands with Kim! She has been walking my dog for the last 7 months and my dog looks forward to seeing Kim every day! It will be a sad day when she can no longer look after my pup when I am at work!”
“Dominique is amazing!! Boomie loves her. She takes him on a long walk. He gets cuddles. She is on time and very good at communicating if we need to adjust the schedule. She is professional and a delight to work with. Highly recommend.”
“So damn fortunate to have found Bianca. As pet owners, everyone is familiar with the apprehension that accompanies when you have to trust a stranger with your pets or like I say “Your Heart and Soul”. My boys are uber spoiled and Bianca’s level of patience with them….I couldn’t ask for anything more. She is communicative, punctual, extremely professional. She took the time to truly listen and understand Buddy and Brody’s personalities - their likes and dislikes - their joys and anxieties. As a pet owner, one can’t ask for anything more. The only aspect that behooves me is why does she not charge more for her services? Lol. All kidding aside, she is a Godsend for pet owners. B, once again thank you for you.”
“Maria was great at following instructions for feeding and walking . She communicated promptly about her timing and availability. And my dog warmed up to her right away . I would definitely use her dog walking service again.”
“Kevin is great with our Greta who is very high energy. He is patient and professional. Greta waits for him by the front door when she knows she’s gets to go for a walk. Thank you Kevin!”

“This is now the 4th time Ekaterina and her family have baby sat for my girl, Loretta. Loretta is very nervous and has really bad separation anxiety. But Ekaterina and her family are always so wonderful with her! With them, I never have to worry about Loretta when my family and I go away; she is in perfect hands!
